Theseus and the Maze, created by Jaj, is a platform exploration game, in which you must escape a large maze, with as many diamonds as possible, as fast as you can.

You play the role of a pink little creature, which can only jump so high at the start of the game. Throughout the game, you get better jumping, as well as a double jump skill.

The graphics in the game were very nice, and worked well with the rest of the game. All the creatures and obstacles that you meet throughout the game had great pixel art, making the game a lot more enjoyable.



To get to different areas of the game, you have to find keys to unlock doors, as well as hit switches to make something change (for example, make a platform appear somewhere, or a portal open).

The game also features some nice music, that doesn’t get repetitive in anyway. It just swings along at a nice pace.
The sound effects are simple, but effective. They work well, sound good, and make the game feel much more polished and complete.

And, like every game should, the challenge slowly increases, as different harder obstacles come into play.


Lastly, the game has an online high score table, to show who beat the game with the most diamonds.



With all these great features, the game is really an enjoyable play. The game play is simple, yet effective, and a good length.
